Hi All!
Just finished up my tank install the other day and flashed in the tank and the eTBM while I was there. Other than the distance units reverting to km, the FORScan update went pretty smooth. My question for those that have done this install is how long does it take the DTE to recalculate the tank range? When I first adjusted the code in FORScan after filling the tank, the DTE showed "875 mi to E" (full tank). Today, I took the truck up the road to my daughter's place, 60 miles away. On the drive up, the DTE fell off at a rather accelerated rate, roughly double the miles driven. Within seconds of hitting "799 mi to E," it reset to 850. On the ride home, it reset to 870 at about the same indication as the first reset. It reset one last time about 5 miles from home to "901 mi to E." I should mention the the gauge is still on full and the total distance is about 130 miles driven since the code update. Currently the "Average Economy" gauge (aka The Lie-O-Meter) is showing 23 mpg and the Trip 1 summary shows the economy at 22.8 mpg over 400 miles on the run. Just curious when I should expect this to settle down and get reasonably accurate.
